In Nov. 1997, the Sec. of Defense issued his Defense Reform Initiative (DRI) Report outlining a plan for reforming DoD's business affairs. To implement the report's initiatives, the Sec. established a Defense Management Council and chartered it with responsibility for overseeing the effort and serving as his internal board of directors for management. This report discusses (1) actions taken through the DRI management structure to facilitate achieving the program's objectives, and (2) progress made in implementing individual reform initiatives.
